Evangeline is our fifth blessing from the Lord. She was born in January 2008 with an undiagnosed Congenital Heart Defect; Transposition of the Great Arteries. At 10 days old, she presented with respiratory distress. In the ER she crashed and a team of a dozen doctors worked through the night to revive her tiny body as it went into shock. After diagnosing her broken heart, she was Life Flighted to MUSC in Charleston for open heart surgery. She has since battled Congestive Heart Failure, Chronic Lung Disease, severe reflux, Failure to Thrive and auto-immune disorders.
Her name means "Peace", though her short life has been anything but! We sense that God is teaching us "peace in the storm" through her little life! She is our precious miracle and a testimony to the power of prayer and Gods gracious healing. This is the journal of her life and those who love her.

We just finished shooting another set for Dayspring Dresses. This one was a lot of fun. A Mix and Match Coordinating line for all the sisters. Kelly is just so talented and never ceases to amaze me with her creativity in coming up with new designs.

Oh the irony.... Ive been asked for years if I ever model (strictly because of my height.) I found it emensely funny that the first time I actually have modeled is now when Im 7 months "great-with-child". Kelly asked me to model for a Mommy and Me set she's just created.

It was fun, but there is no doubt in my mind that I prefer being on the other side of the camera!

Me and my sassy little ladies.

Ooh this just makes me anxious for spring! The kids have been begging me to go through the summer clothes and stock their drawers with dresses and shorts. I just know that as soon as I do that, we're going to have another cold snap!

The photography bug is in my blood. I find myself ever driving around scouting out where the next fun backdrop for a shoot might be. The weather-worn barn behind the neighbors house. That grassy field of sunflowers. An abandoned rusted out old truck. The shady pond with the ducks. The yard with rows of billowing white pear trees.
